DAILY MINDSET **“True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence of the future” – Seneca ** How often do we rush to finish line? Immediately turning to the next, only to rush once again? The aim is not to ignore the future. Yet when we spend so much time working for the future, we by default ignore the present. Until... it has become the past. All of this can sound mindlessly simple – and it is. Yet we often become so frantically busy planning for the futur

DAILY MINDSET **“When are closed to ideas, what we hear is criticism. When we are open to criticism, what we get is advice.” - Simon Sinek ** Our immediate temptation when we receive feedback can be to defend. And often, this defense can be so strong, that it deafens us to any potential upside. We literally close it off, not because the actual information isn’t useful… but because we allowed our emotions to get in the way. Next time we receive feedback, let’s listen. As obvio

DAILY MINDSET **“When you have one foot in the past, and one in the future, you piss on the present." - Dan Harris ** It's fun to think about the future, and it's easy to dwell on the past. What is more challenging is to put the thought power into the present - what is directly in front of us. Right now. Nothing is insignificant. From the most subtle acts at home between family members, to the minor conversation at work. We never know when it's our last moment. It's less of a

DAILY MINDSET **“Reasons > Goals”** Let’s imagine Jane is overweight, and is set on a new goal. To lose 30 pounds this year. Despite being a good, measurable, does it really mean anything to her? Does it get her out of bed in the morning? We can all agree, there’s something missing. As good as a goal is, in order for it to truly do anything for us, there must be a specific, defined, and real reason behind it. Let’s now imagine Jane wants to lose 30 pounds, but, not for hersel

DAILY MINDSET **“Never confuse movement, with action.” - Ernest Hemingway** We’ve all had that friend who is constantly busy. Always flying a million miles an hour, but… in all directions at once. And in turn, they find themselves in the same place a year later. We don’t want to just “move” through life, just like how we don’t want to “exercise”. We *train*. And we train, because our reps have a purpose behind them. There’s something we’re building towards that specific, defi

DAILY MINDSET **“If we did all the things we are capable of, we would literally, astound ourselves.” – Thomas Edison** Sometimes we simply need to get out of our way. We are capable of so much more than we’ll ever know. What stops us – fear and doubt. We have voices inside our head, trying to keep us safe. But waiting on the other side of that, is the absolute astonishment that Thomas Edison speaks about. Many have the incorrect pre-disposition that this quote doesn’t apply t

MINDSET **“The most important decision we make is whether we believe we live in a friendly or hostile universe.” - Albert Einstein** We don’t get what we want. We get what we expect. The world will treat us the way we expect to be treated. If we believe it’s “dog eat dog”, and “every man for himself”, then we are doomed to believe so. The lens we’ll see through will be of defensiveness, comparison, and general hostility… even when it’s not even there to begin with. But the op

DAILY MINDSET **“Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.” – Dr. Seuss** People aren’t thinking about you. People are thinking about what *you* are thinking about *them*. Just think about it for a second. We’ve all been in that rabbit hole… moving about our day wondering what others think of us. In an effort to please everyone, or to “look right”. Taken from a children’s book, this quote... is anything but chil

DAILY MINDSET **“Shallow people believe in luck and circumstance. Strong people believe in cause and effect” – Ralph Waldo Emerson** We can choose to believe that life is happening to us, or that we are fully in control. We could stand by, and wait for life to happen to us. Or, we can choose to believe that we have a say in our own story. That we are the writers of our own script. Life is a direct reflection of the choices that we make. That the good, bag, ugly, and everythin
